RELAY info needed

Hi guys..I am checking some relays on my 09XFs/c and when checking the ohms with a multimeter i am getting readings around 76 for all the 5&4 pin relays (square).
On the smaller narrower relays also 4 pin i am getting 128+...Anyone happen to know what the correct ohms reading should be for a good relay?

The typical resistance range for 12V relays is 50 to 200 Ohms. It will vary depending on the physical size, type, coil wire size, temperature and many other factors.
Some relays have a diode connected across the coil and will appear as a short circuit if not measured with the correct test lead polarity when using the Ohm meter.

Hi EXEF... Thanks for that info..I did however find out that if the Ohms go above 120 they are not good and to replace. I did and found the new one to read 78 which is ideal. Boy have i had some issues with these things. After getting the image of your fuse box i have actually replaced all of the relays. Wasn't too dear..I finally managed to fix sc pump and get aux pump to work. What i am now dealing with is the supercharger not working. Have you had any issues with or have any knowledge regarding SCrs?

No doubt that others here would have such experience and knowledge. Perhaps you should start a new thread on the subject with a detailed description of the problems that you are experiencing to see if anyone can help?
